Antioxidants are essential in helping to protect against the cellular damage that can be caused by free radicals. Most antioxidants, of which there are hundreds, lose their protective powers after quenching a single free radical.
Networking antioxidants like those chosen in Network Synergy have the ability to recycle one another and therefore provide longer antioxidant coverage. Other nutrients, such as the mineral selenium and the bioflavonoids, enhance the antioxidant network and are included in Network Synergy.
The core nutrients included in Network Synergy are R(+)-lipoic acid, the complete range of vitamin E complementary forms (tocopherols and tocotrienols), vitamin C, glutathione and CoQ10.
According to Dr Lester Packer, the worlds foremost antioxidant research scientist and head of the prestigious Packer Lab at the University of California, these antioxidants are unique in their ability to "regenerate" one another back into their active forms once they are spent in their constant and necessary battle with harmful free radicals.
Lipoic acid has been used to support healthy blood sugar metabolism. Scientists have compared the effects of the two “lipoic acid” molecules separately.
R (+) lipoic acid fights all of the major effects of insulin resistance.
R (+) lipoic acid is more easily absorbed and taken into the cells than S (-) lipoic acid.
Both forms of lipoic acid can be made more powerful by “charging” them up into their DHLA form.
An animal study using R (+) lipoic acid found that it was able to significantly reduce age-related build up of iron in the brain.
R (+) lipoic acid, in animal experiments and in test-tube studies, makes mitochondria more efficient, so that they produce more energy and create fewer free radicals.
The National Institutes on Aging are currently funding studies to see if R (+) lipoic acid can truly slow down the aging process.
Lipoic acid is known for its ability to protect brain and nerve cells from free radicals and toxins. Excessive levels of “transition metals” such as iron, copper, and cadmium are believed to play an important role in many neurological disorders. Having too much free iron in a key part of the brain has been implicated as a cause of Parkinson’s disease
